The New Patriotic Party (NPP) on Tuesday said each constituency Chairman of the 230 constituencies was to convene and chair the election of delegates to the December 22, NPP Congress, when the party would elect its flag bearer out of its eighteen aspirants.
Mr. Peter Mac Manu, National Chairman of the Party briefing the media in Accra said the action was in consonance with the NPP constitution and that four delegates were to be constituency executives, while six others would have to be elected to make up for the ten delegates required for the congress.
